Traffic congestion is a growing concern for those who live, work and visit Central Florida. As our region continues to grow at a staggering pace, that congestion will only get worse. Though there is no one magic bullet to solve our traffic woes, several different modes of transportation options working together - know as "intermodal" in transportation-speak - is a proven way to ease the gridlock.
That's why the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), in cooperation with the federal government and local officials in Orange, Seminole, Volusia and Osceola counties and the city of Orlando, is advancing SunRail, a commuter rail transit project that will run along a 61-mile stretch of existing rail freight tracks in the four-county area.
The 31-mile first phase of SunRail would serve 12 stations, linking DeBary to Orlando. Phase II would serve 5 additional stations, north to DeLand and south to Poinciana. Service is expected to begin in late 2012/early 2013 - just as FDOT is expected to start a major I-4 reconstruction project through the heart of Central Florida.
